OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Subject: Combined SO/PS LDCE 2014 – Allocation of candidates-reg.

The undersigned is directed to say that the final result of Combined SO/PS Limited Departmental Competitive Examination 2014 has been declared by UPSC on 31.12.2015 and this Department has started the process of nomination of the qualified candidates in the said examination to different Cadre Units. Cadre Units are, therefore, requested to verify the tentative vacancy position as on 04.01.2016 (Annexure-IV) in the PS Grade and intimate discrepancies, if any, as in Annexure V with reasons for variation to this Department. It has been observed in the past, that this crucial information from Cadre Units does not reach this Department by the due date, as a result of which the entire process gets delayed. It is, therefore, requested to furnish the information positively by the deadline prescribed in para (4) below.

2. Revised Rotational Transfer Policy, as notified vide OM dated 22.07.2015, in respect of CSSS officers provides, inter alia, as under:

  • (i) Ministries/Departments are categorized into category A and category B for posting/transfer (Annexure-I & II)
  • (ii) Certain Ministries qualify for concession in tenure for posting by one year (Annexure-III):
  • (iii) The policy provides a tenure of Eight years for PS grade in a particular Ministry/Department, including continuous tenure rendered in any other designation in the same Ministry/Department;
  • (iv) On promotion, an officer at any level shall be posted out of the Ministry/Department if he/she has served in the same Ministry/Department in any capacity for a period exceeding the prescribed tenure for the promotion post;
  • (v) Officers who are due for superannuation within two years will be retained in the same Ministry/Department against an existing vacancy of the promotional post. In case of there being no vacancy of the promotional post then the officer will be transferred to another Ministry/Department;
  • (vi) Officers who are due for superannuation within six months will not be transferred as in such a short period one cannot be expected to continue usefully in another Ministry/Department. Further, such a transfer may result in delay of finalizing pension papers. Such an officer will be retained in the same Ministry/Department against an available vacancy of the promotional post. In the absence of a vacancy, the post held by him/her will be upgraded on personal basis by keeping one post in another Ministry/Department vacant so as not to exceed the cadre strength. On retirement the post will: revert to its original level;
    (vii) The Placement Committee will decide posting of officers on the basis of vacancy, seniority, preference for posting etc.
  1. Cadre Units are, hereby, requested to forward the personal details of the successful candidates along with their preference for posting (Annexure-VI).

  2. The above information/documents may be forwarded to this Department immediately, latest by 07.01.2016 through special messenger or fax (No.24623157) positively.

  3. It may also be ensured that the Web based data in respect of these officials is complete and updated.
